Our story
Daniel & Ezgi
Having met at Trinity College Dublin doing our Masters, what brought us together was the strong Turkish culture and the beauty of it. We always dreamed of introducing parts of Turkey to the world, and doing so in an environmentally sustainable way.
Inspired by the discovery of premium textiles and our entrepreneurial spirit, we started this online boutique to showcase the beauty of Turkish textiles to the world and make connections with the many people who appreciate good quality products.
With peshtemals(*) headlining the show, we hope to bring you a larger selection of quality Turkish products in the months to come.
We are proud to donate to carbon removal projects across the globe to offset our carbon footprint with each order you place. Learn more here.
Thank you for being a part of Lycia's journey!
But What is Lycia?
Lycia was a state that flourished in Anatolia (also known as Asia Minor) from 15th-14th centuries, BC. The state bordered the Mediterranean Sea, in what is today Antalya and Muğla, provinces in Turkey and was known to history from the Late Bronze Age records of ancient Egyptand the Hittite Empire.
Today, southwestern Turkey is the home to the Lycian Way, a stunning long distance trail, over 500km in length, with phenomenal coastal views and fantastic hiking experiences all around.
